Pick of the pops

[lollipoprainbow]

Does anyone else feel Steve Wright has ruined this show on a Saturday? I used to love listening when Paul Gambacino hosted but have lost interest now. The inane chatter, stupid comments, talking over the end of the songs. Argh !

[MassiveOvaryaction]

Yup. Stopped listening sadly. Listen to the tracks sometimes though when I remember to look at the listing on the programme page.

I didn't hear SW doing POTP but I'm listening to Gary Davies at the moment and he's making a good fist of it. If he got the job permanently I'd be happy.

Do we know who will be hosting it now?

Gosh, I felt the same about SW. I didn't see your original post at the time. I don't think it's been announced yet, who's taking it over permanently. I feel the same about Tony Blackburn & Sounds of the Sixties. Brian Matthew's was much more informative. I've managed to get used to TB now though, even laughed at one of his jokes on Saturday.

There's a very similar programme to Pick of the Pops on Boom Radio Sunday lunchtimes.

I listened to some of it on Saturday and Gary Davies is actually alright. He came out with some good facts like "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" is a cover which is something that I've only discovered recently myself.
